Background technology
Electronic installation comprises various interface, and recently, high-speed serial bus has obtained application as the serial ATA (SATA) of communicating by letter with hard disk or CD-ROM drive.
Universal serial bus refers to the interface that transmits data based on each communication one bit.Due to nearest universal serial bus high-speed cruising, therefore, may there is intersymbol interference (ISI), skin effect (skin effect) (or rough wave effect (wave effect)) and electrical loss." skin effect " is illustrated in conductivity decline or the resistivity during flow transmission in the material with high conductivity (streaming) meter record (logging), observed to be increased, and " electrical loss " represents the loss occurring when dielectric being applied to interchange (AC) electric field." ISI " represents to disturb, wherein, the symbol waveform of another time slot of symbol waveform influence of a time slot, this is due to the limit bandwidth of transmission path or amplifier or due to the nonlinear characteristic of phase place on transmission path.Figure 18 illustrates the distorted wave that ISI causes.
Can compensate ISI by the technology of postemphasising or equalizer techniques.Particularly, the transmitting terminal of universal serial bus considers that by the use technology of postemphasising ISI carrys out transmitted signal, and the receiving terminal of universal serial bus improves the waveform receiving by equalizer techniques.Figure 19 illustrates the example of the signal waveform of having applied the technology of postemphasising and equalizer techniques.More specifically, Figure 19 A shows does not have to utilize the signal waveform of postemphasising with equalizer techniques, Figure 19 B shows the signal waveform of only utilizing the technology of postemphasising, Figure 19 C shows the signal waveform of only utilizing equalizer techniques, and Figure 19 D shows and utilizes the two signal waveform of the technology of postemphasising and equalizer techniques.

Yet, when technology and equalizer techniques are postemphasised in application, the value of postemphasising that conventional serial interface utilization is fixing and fixing equalizer values.Therefore, signal distortion more when connecting new equipment.This is further describing referring to Figure 20.
Figure 20 shows the simulation result of applying equalizer techniques and do not apply equalizer techniques in having applied identical same systems of postemphasising.
Traditionally, with fixing postemphasising, realize and postemphasising and equilibrium with equalizer values, wherein for example, via various meters record (logging) methods (, emulation), optimize and postemphasis and equalizer values.Therefore, signal transmission does not have distortion, as shown in FIG. 20 A.
Yet, if user selects and install new equipment, because system does not have to find the equalizer values setting for new installed equipment, but do not consider the equilibrium characteristic of new installed equipment, arrange and utilize the default value of postemphasising.
If the value of postemphasising is set to high-gain values, and if the equalizer of new installed equipment is also set to high-gain values, system can be carried out chaotic operation owing to causing in waveform compared with strong distortion so, as shown in Figure 20 B.Therefore,, according to the characteristic of postemphasising, characteristics of signals may be deteriorated more serious than not having in balanced situation.
